Adler has paid his debt to society

Paul Adler is, and has proven to be, a good man. He paid for his misstep and has bent over backwards to redeem his name. Volunteering his time and expertise to help others is a true and real window into the man. Even tattoos can be excised once the owner decides it's no longer for him/her.

The two members of the board of the Hudson Valley Legal Services group who resigned in protest are unforgiving, petty and just plain wrong. As far as the law is concerned, the book on Mr. Adler is closed. He's paid for his mistake and has the right to go on with his life. His good deeds since his release should be the things the two "quitters" should focus on. The good he has done overwhelms his misdeed - which he paid for - and LSHV should be commended for their appointment.
